Thank you for posting this incredible line-up of musicians and some of the most intense and definitive arrangements of prog in it's glory.
You're welcome.
U. K. haven’t made an album in over forty years and only gave us two albums back then. All this time later and I still can’t stop listening to them and marveling at their prowess. Just amazing.
plus UK Live
@@maxo1124 Yep!
Great music is timeless. I still enjoy prog & rock music from 40-50 years ago.
I had a UK album with Terry Bozzio on drums-- I liked that record and especially some of the things Terry played-- I didn’t know much about the group and really still don’t.
The live Night After Night is terrific also!
Im 67 so my youth was during a time of an explosion in musical ideas and the new or re-invented musical instruments. Electric violin, Melotrons, and of course all manors of of synths. When Jobson brought a Yamaha CS-80 double synth to the UK live gigs, it may have been a first. Those things took 3 or 4 guys to carry it onto a stage, they were that heavy and cumbersome. The UK 'sound print' was undeniably the late Alan Holdsworth (whom i met in OC Calif. in the 80's And bought him a pint at Baxters in Irvine his haunt). The guitarist taking his place playing is so good, well if you closs your eyes and think back......
Marco Minnimen is one of my top 5 players at this point. He does not play like the Maestro BB or his replacement😉. He plays like Marco taking on the task of playing UK music. He is brilliant and if you close your eyes...........John Wetton is not replaceable. Seeing him sing a play send me in my 'wayback machine' when i saw King Crimson on the Red tour in LA. That voice, that voice. Hope to see you at the Great Gig In The Sky. I miss your brilliant bass playing.
Eddie Jobson is UK.
I saw Eddie once when he was keying for Roxy Music. I wish I had seen him play more than that.
Anyway thank you for this post.
I had the chance to see/listen to UK opening for Jethro Tull in Houston in 1979. For me Jobson and Bruford where the backbone of UK's music. To boot, Edie Jobson came back out and played with Jethro Tull. What a great night to listen to Jobson playing both Time to Kill and later Flyingdale Flyer. Just a few months before I saw Yes, then with Alan White on drums, with an awesome solo performance by Rick Wakeman. What a time to live.
Thank you for your wonderful story and knowledge.
way easier than a GX 1 to tote around
Absolute masterpieces played by absolute masters. This is a highpoint of prog.
I still get chills listening to this. The entire first album is a masterpiece. I was fortunate to see this lineup at the Santa Monica Civic as the opening act for Al Dimeola. OMG
Was at the civic that night also, what a great time.
Legendary musicians in Jobson and Wetton. Love UK. Saw them as an opening act for a Styx concert in 1978 at the Palladium in NYC. They blew the roof off the place. Bill Bruford was the drummer. Alan,Eddie and John. What a cherished memory.
that woulda been awesome, they didn't open for Styx on the west coast
@@bebru2439 Imagine a massive band like UK opening for a band like Styx. No disrespect to Styx, I like them, and I went to high school with Tommy Shaw. But there is no comparison as to the weight of the bands historically.
UK would blow Styx right off the stage
I wouldn't have wanted to go on stage after UK😢
"Legendary musicians in Jobson and Wetton."
indeed -- and we're seeing Alex and Marco's legends being formed as they continue to perform
This music could be played any decade or any century, and would still be relevant
Just like anything Bach, Mozart, Beethoven etc. Classics. 200 years from now (if we survive as a civilization of course) all pop divas of present day will be completely forgotten, but this music - UK, Weather Report, Steps Ahead, Tribal Tech etc. will be always relevant and sound fresh. High information music will prevail…
When people talk about Eddie, they usually mean Van Halen. It's about time they started talking about Jobson as well.
For me, Alaska and Time To Kill are the two perfect examples of what an amazing musician Eddie Jobson really is, from his unbelievable keyboard playing to his jaw dropping violin playing, this could very well be one of his finest performances in UK as he is all over the music and has such a large presence. John Wetton is on top form both musically and vocally with solid bass playing, Alex Machacek does an amazing job handling the guitar parts of Allan Holdsworth but also staying true to his playing, from one great drummer to another, Marco Minnemann really does a great service to the legendary Bill Bruford and leaves his mark all over the music with his excellent drumming. This UK lineup were very tight as a unit and showed that they were more than a worthy continuation of the original 70s incarnation.
you forgot about Terry Bozzio on drums who was great on UK Live album
As great a musician as Eddie is, it was always a head scratcher that his career's output has been so minuscule. I've looked and looked for old music from him, and I've found very little.
I saw the same lineup but with Mike Mangini of Dream Theater on drums in San Francisco in 2014. Show Absolutely kicked ass.
I first realised that Eddie Jobson was a gun from Zappa's Live in NY. There was a song, I Promise Not to Come in Your Mouth, which was actually an elegant jazz ballad. Eddie's solo in it was short but the most beautiful synth solo I've heard before or since. Top drawer musician.
Look for EDDIE JOBSON playing with CURVED AIR on "Air Cut" album. He was very young then, back in 1973. Born in 1955, he was just 18 years old. An amazing Prog Album.
I bought the UK vinyl records in cut out bins for .99 cents, didn't know what it was, but the names Bruford & Wetton caught my attention. Another good bin find from that period, Recycled by Nektar along with the rest of their catalog. Decades later I bought the CD's for ~ $15 ea. For a live performance of the original band look for 'live in cleveland' for the audio, there was no video. IMHO Danger Money is just as good with the different lineup like I saw in Providence on the Tull tour. That was rescheduled because the first date was postponed when a fan tossed a rose stem on the stage the show before and poked Ian in the eye. I did not find out until I drove a carload to Providence and arrived to find the place deserted.
Wow, wow, wow and then WOW
Glad I finally got to see them in Baltimore with Terry Bozzio on drums before John passed. My favorite band since I was 11.
Fantastic ! R.I.P John...
Ahhhhhh...
Je revis !
Voir cette prestation scénique et cette musique fabuleuse... pffff c'est un émerveillement ❤
I love both UK albums, but Danger Money will always have a special place in my heart. I just started getting into prog and fusion as a kid in 1977, and became obsessed with Emerson Lake & Palmer right around Christmas 1977 when I got copies of Tarkus and Works. I was lucky enough to see ELP on the Works tour in 1978 and after that I was so excited for the next ELP record. Unfortunately that record was Love Beach and it was such a huge let down for me. Fortubately, shortly after that Danger Money came out and it was like the ELP record I was dreaming of!!!
This is a drummer, Palmer was the Lars of his day.. bad time, weak ideas, big ego. UK crushed ELP whom I also loved. This stands up, ELP sounds bloated. Time changes...
I've always had a hard time understanding how a band that could create Brain Salad Surgery and Trilogy could also create a piece of garbage like Love Beach.
Thank you so much for posting this epic masterpiece!
Mind blowing. Brings tears to my eyes.
I was there in this Tokyo concert. Eddie didn’t like the original performance, and retook the piece after the concert ended. We all were so excited that they played the masterpiece again. Thank you for putting it up.
Marco is killin' it. Great having youth and energy for half the band. Wetton as always is ace. Eddie as well! Alex handles Holdsy's part quite well.
Marco the best Drummer in the world!!
A pleasure to watch this guys play.
Best debut album ever recorded.
Surely you jest.
True!!
Fantastic work as always
Marco Minnemann, drummer extraordinaire.
didn't he have a stint with FZ?
@@PHDWhom no idea
Pretty sure he didn’t/couldn’t - I think you’re thinking of Terry Bozzio? 👍
@@gerh33 not necessarily thinking of Bozzio, but yeah, I guess you're correct.
@@PHDWhom Joe Satriani, Aristocrats, Mike Keneally, etc. However, Jobson did play in Zappa's band mid-70's.
Incredibile musicians in an amazing performance
Wow killer playing by all!
I got the UK Live album when it came out. Saw them in concert in 1979, Eddie and John with Terry Bozio, opening for Jethro Tull in Long Beach, CA. Great concert. I idolized Jobson at the time. Still do. Amazing.
saw them warm up for jethro tull back in the early 80s nothing to say but absolutely awsome
F'n awesome performance...when I bought this back in 78 I was stunned at the playing and production, still am to this day, but what a live performance...prog at its best...utter class.
Eddie Jobson ist ein Tastenmagier des Wahnsinns....absolute Championsleague
No comment, only: FANTASTIC!!!
this is my Musik ! Fantastic 👍💪
... bombastic 😜🤪👌✌
UK absolutely on par w classic Yes n ELP. Carrying No Cross is one of my fave compositions of theirs…but all their stuff is stunning to me!!!
¡¡Pero qué BUENOS…y reitero…pero qué BUENOS son estos muchachos!!!👏🏻
Hicieron solo dos álbumes…y les alcanzó (y sobró) para “pasear” su música a TODOS quienes les admiren como yo !!! 👏🏻👏🏻❤
John y Allan…que en paz descansen!! 😢
¡Y gracias por todo lo que dieron musicalmente!! 🤗🎵
si
Iv also seen them a few times. Great concert great great memories 👍🏻💯
I saw their first tour, original lineup. This footage looks and sounds great!
From one of the best album in the galaxy ❤
Holy Cow this band is dazzling. I listened to this album every morning before school during my HS senior year 1976-1977. Thanks for the upload
Amazing!
Wow!!!
GENIUS!!!!!
Captivating !!! ❤
I first heard 'Alaska' in '77, on the legendary Tulane University Station, WTUL. It had been released maybe that day? Not more than a week. Anyway, it played on the weekend, midnight-to-wee-hours, 'Bizzarre (sic) Radio'. Not to forget that first clarion. I knew it was something meteoric within fifteen seconds.
You want to know what progressive rock is? there you have it in all its splendor. There is nothing in current music that can be compared to bands like the UK and others that gave us the best Rock of all time in the '70s.
Hey, King Crimson is still producing amazingly technical work.
That was awesome! I still love Johns contribution to the 1970s king Crimson…Legendary!🌞
I saw them in 1979, great show !
completely mind blowing and beyond
ES FANTASTICO. BUENOS MÚSICOS.
Great song! Great band!❤
SU MAJESTAD EL ROCK PROGRESIVO !!!!! MARAVILLOSO !!!! saludos desde Chie.
Eddie Jobson bardzo niedoceniony muzyk, mistrz!
Dlatego niedoceniony, bo mistrz.
@@KrystofDreamJourney Prawda!
EPIC
Impresionante...¡¡¡😎😎😎
Back when Greg Lake left King Crimson, to form ELP, I thought KC could never replace that strong velvet voice but I was totally wrong when I was first exposed to his replacement, the great John Wetton
Fabuloso, gracias por compartir saludos desde Lima Perú.
about as good as it gets right there !
Just like I remembered seeing U.K. for the first time opening for The Police at MSG in 1981 if my memory is correct! AWESOME!!!
Love the intro!!
Alaska always felt like UK’s nod to ELP Tarkus.
Fantastic music. This one ib better than Reunion dvd, which is quite good.
Masters at work 😊
shame there's no video with Gary Husband playing. that was brilliant. he handled it extremely well.
Great fuckn band indeed 🎶🎵🎼🎵 especially the first album with Holdsworth....
Eddie Jobson’s violin solo! Wow.
Todos de la cuerda Roxy Music, Bryan Ferry. Magníficos
I was 12 hearing U.K debut album. I knew of John Wetton work with King Crimson. My older uncles introduced me to much of the progressive rock of the 70s, first U.K, album with Alan Holdsworth, Buford, Eddie, still remains in my top 10. Danger Money was just as good, my favorite track, Nothing to Lose. 45 years later, like a fine wine, got better with age. Timeless
It truly often has some KC and ELP style
13歳から53歳になる今でも大好き、特にアラスカ〜タイムトゥーキルは最高
Drummer is freaking good
Bardzo fajnię!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! C'est magnifique!
Mr. Edwin Jobson, esq. is one of the greatest crossover multi-instrumentalists of all time, and there’s a line running through the very finest of British prog/folk rock/art glam that is his alone. How he is such an unknown hero is beyond comprehension.
John Wetton ...for me the voice of ProgRock with those of Jon Anderson, Greg Lake, Peter Gabriel ...
I would have to add the lovely Annie Haslam to that list😊
And Jon Anderson Yes
@@user-jf2dd1fe7q His name was written since 8 months man 🤣😂
7:27 Eargasm!
U.K. ➡️ Elevado , muy elevado exponente del jazz rock, ó mejor dicho, rock/jazz que es superlativamente PROGRESIVO. Tienen compás, melodía, ritmo, arreglos sofisticados, virtuosismo, sentimiento, originalidad, etcétera y más etcéteras!!! 👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻🎵🙏🏻
I'll buy the DVD. Great to have a full remastered set available (so far I've only found bits and pieces of the 2013 tour on RUclips).
🎉both at
uk and aisia.both famous
band in the world but
I love uk . next I like Asia because step by step to
pop. j wetton Lead there.
I think#obvious the I think
feel
Remember In the Dead of Night?
Tremenda banda¡¡¡
thx
Only three words: this is amaaaaaaaazing,from an old fan of prog/rock bands of seventies like ELP,Yes,Genesis,king crimson and others not exactly prog like the early Pink Floyd (faaaantastic live at Pompei),Jethro Tull ,Gentle Giant,Renaissance,Magma; but also fan of germans Tangerine dream,Klaus Schulze,Popol Vuh,Can ; and appreciate also Rush and Dream Theatre,Frank Zappa ,weather report.from Treviso Italy Cattarin Luciano
My last post reads "this lineup". I meant the original...Jobs on, Welton, Bruford, Holdsworth
The best progressive fusion album ever.
ladies und getlemans, mr. john wetton.
Living in a a world where this video has less than 500 likes
- we're all gonna die
🤣👍🇮🇪
Jobson donde toco, cambio al.grupo, un sutil genio...😮
This piece reminds of ELP…
'cause the synth
exiquisito
IMHO UKs 1st album is the greatest prog rock album ever
Thanks for posting. This is the highest quality UK recording I've found yet.
By the way John Wetton died in 2017 unfortunately. R I P John. You were a great musician.
Carrying No Cross, please...
My accursed Apple iPhone 13 just informed me that I've exceeded my weekly allotment for headphone usage according to the high volume I listened to music at, and my cellphone has recorded my personal listening volume preference.
What does Apple expect from a 66 year old progphile. UK along with the other bands in the genre require a concert volume level listening as the music was intended to be felt as much as heard.
on étaient beaux , indestructibles et fous ...........................
エディの分厚いポリフォニックと狂おしいバイオリンの二刀流は45年経った今でももぶっ飛ぶ！
ただしドラムはやはりビルブルーフォードかテリーボジオの方がよりタイトかつシャープで ブリティッシュらしい。
あとは今は無きアランホールズワースがいてくれればなあ〜
STILL awesome...
Missed the high vocal parts and Jobson’s violin solo was not nearly as haunting as the album version, but still somewhat satisfying.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Any way we can watch the whole show?
Is there a bad song UK does? Listening for the first time tonight to dozens of songs I haven’t heard one I didn’t like.
🙂👍😎
That's no CS80 Eddie is using. Anyone know what he is using for those sounds?
I believe he was promoting and using the VAX77, from a company called Infinite Response. Doubt you could even get one now, but there is an awesome video of him playing it in front of some fans at NAMM. Lugging around a CS80 is a bit of a nightmare.
JOBSON IS GOD!!!
